How to cook protein at home? What is its use?

Make a protein at home can anyone imagine. All that is needed for this is some of the main ingredients of the beverage itself and a little bit of desire. Doing it at home, each person receives several advantages at once: 100% confidence in the quality of the product, comparative cheapness of the product and a huge choice of tastes. Protein at home will be useful not only for athletes, whose body constantly requires increased protein intake, but also for ordinary people, because a cocktail can contain a lot of vitamins. In addition to this advantage, you can distinguish a great speed of cooking. Bodybuilders, as a rule, consume high-quality protein from well-known manufacturers, but beginners can do without self-made.

You can consume the cocktail at any time: in the morning, between meals, at bedtime, before and after training (for athletes). Protein at home will be an excellent alternative to a quick breakfast, because after sleep, the body will require nutrients that you spent at night. Ideally also will take a drink before bedtime, especially casein, which has a long time of digestion. This is to ensure that your body is not very hungry during sleep. And, finally, the last: this is a real find for those who lose weight, because 300-400 grams do not have such a huge amount of calories, but the feeling of saturation comes quickly. So, let's move on to the cocktails themselves. Cook them by knocking down all the products in the blender.

1. Cocktail number 1 - recipe A. Schwarzenegger:

• One chicken egg;
  
• 2 cups of skim milk;
• Half cups of ice cream;
• Banana or other fruit to taste.

2. Cocktail №2:

• Any fresh fruit;
• 300-350 grams of juice / milk;
• 2-3 table. Spoons of cottage cheese;
• 1-2 eggs;
• A few ice cubes.

3. Cocktail №3 - recipe of Steve Reeves:

• 2-3 tablespoons Dried milk;
• 400 ml freshly squeezed orange juice;
• 2-4 eggs;
• 1 banana;
• 1 tbsp each. Honey and gelatin.

4. Cocktail № 4:

• 250 ml of milk;
• 1 banana;
• A little yogurt;
• Oat flakes (2-4 tablespoons);
• 50-100 grams of ice cream.

5. Cocktail № 5:

• 200-300 ml of milk;
• 50-100 grams of blueberries;
• 1/2 cup ice cream;
• 2 tsp. Cocoa powder.

6. Cocktail № 6:

• Orange juice - 200 ml;
• Low-fat cottage cheese - 50 g;
• Half a banana;
• Chocolate or cocoa - 25 grams;
• Jam - 1 tsp

These are cocktails made with your own hands and at home. Of course, for one time it will be too much, so it is better to stretch for 2 or even 3 receptions. In addition to high protein content, such drinks also have a lot of carbohydrates, which bring fruit and other sweets. Therefore, in order not to grow stout, you need to be more careful with them. It should also be mentioned that most of these cocktails (cooked at home on natural products) are based on milk and cottage cheese, that is sources of casein. For a sportsman such a drink before and after training will not help, because, as it was written above, has a low rate of assimilation. Athletes need at this time to use whey protein.

Here, and the problem arises - whey protein at home can not be cooked. Of course, having KSB ( whey protein concentrate ), you can easily cope with the task. However, in an ordinary grocery store or a supermarket you will not find it, you will have to order it. The price of KSB in Russia ranges from 600 to 800 rubles per kilogram. If you want to buy whey protein from a registered manufacturer, then prepare to shell out 900 and more rubles per kilogram.

Of course, that for a simple person, protein at home is a godsend, but it is unlikely to help a sportsman, except for use before bedtime. The caloric content of most of the above cocktails can exceed 700 kcal per half liter, so do not put too much weight on them. However, it's better than drinking the same 0.5 liters of yogurt, right? Protein at home can be useful even to children because of the high content of vitamins. Taste + benefit - what could be better?
